Just as a note ahead of time; we will not be adding the suffixes at the end of the characters names.  We know they exist and we know which characters say which suffixes to certain people but we just feel like fool children adding them so we're not going to.  So you can just pretend as though they're there.  Unless, of course, it will pain and scar you to read this story without the suffixes then you have two options.  One is to copy and paste the entire story into a word document and then add the suffixes yourself and THEN read it.  The other is that you could just not read it and if you do either of those two options then I swear you need to reconsider your life and if you're NOT going to read this just because there aren't any suffixes, you are stupid and will not be missed at all.  Now we'll start.

"Wow!" said Tohru as she looked at the huge boat that sat in front of them.  "It's so big!  You really didn't have to do this!  I'll find some way of paying you back for all your generosity."

"It's really nothing!" said Momiji.  "I've been saving up my allowance."

"Just how much allowance do you have?" asked Kyo, sounding annoyed.

"Obviously enough to get us all on the boat." Said Haru.

"Yuki, share a room with me and strengthen the bond between us brothers!" said Ayame.

"Not a chance." Said Yuki.

"There are room assignments anyway." Said Hatori, holding up their tickets.

Shigure yoinked the tickets out of his hands.  "Oh wow!  We're assigned in the same room, Hatori!" he exclaimed.

"Am I in the same room as Kyo?!" asked Kagura excitedly.  "I better be because if I'm not…!!"

"Kisa, do you want to get something to eat?" asked Hiro as he tapped Kisa on the shoulder and pointed at some crazy outdoor hotdog-ish stand thing.

"That's okay, Hiro!" said Kisa in a very strained voice.  "I'm all right!"

"OH MY GOD!!!!" screamed Ritsu.  "I CAN'T BELIEVE I WAS INVITED ON THIS TRIP!!  I'M SORRY FOR MAKING YOU PAY FOR ME!!  I'M SORRY!!  I APOLOGIZE TO THE WORLD FOR ALL OF THE SINS I HAVE COMMITED AND TO EVERYONE WHO EVER HAD TO PAY FOR ME IN EVERYTHING!!!  I AM A BAD PERSON!!  I SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN BORN!!!"

"Kureno, carry me…over there." Commanded Akito as he pointed to a spot that was about three feet in front of him as if he couldn't walk by himself.

"Yes Akito." Said Kureno as he picked up Akito and moved him to the spot in which he had commanded to be moved.

Rin looked at the boat and sighed as if it was not good enough for her.

"ALL RIGHT!!!" screamed Momiji suddenly.  "LET'S BOARD!!!"

Just in case you're slow…all of the Jyuunishi people, Kyo, Tohru and Akito are going on a cruise because Momiji saved up his allowance to do something nice for Tohru.  He must have been saving for a REALLY REALLY long time…or he could possibly get a pretty hefty allowance from his father who is trying to make up for his wife being so stupid.

"We have to take our own stuff to our rooms." Said Hatori who had re-acquired the tickets from Shigure.

FIVE MINUTES LATER!!!

"I can't believe I was assigned to be in the same room as you!!" yelled Kyo as he kicked open the door to their room.  He, Yuki, Haru and Momiji entered their room which consisted of two bunk beds and a bathroom and a television.

"Don't worry, I'm not ecstatic on sharing a room with you either." Said Yuki.

"I GET THE TOP BUNK!!" screamed Momiji as he bounded off one of the bottom bunks and landed on the top.

"There's no window here." Said Haru as he pushed a shade aside to reveal a false window.  There was an indentation as if there was GOING to be a window there but someone decided at the last minute that they didn't want to put on in.

"Well, I'm getting these three drawers!" said Kyo as if someone was going to fight him for them.  He then neatly put all of his undergarments and necessities in one drawer, shirts in another and pants in the other.  Momiji hopped off the top bunk and then ran around the room with his suitcase open letting all of his clothes flutter to the ground until the ground was completely covered with very flamboyant Momiji type clothes.

"Momiji, why would you do that?" asked Yuki.

"Well, I thought it was funny how Kyo was being so neat so I decided to be the opposite!" declared Momiji.

"I want to sleep on the top bunk too." Said Haru as he climbed up the ladder to get to the top.  Then he sat there for a minute, looking around, before deciding that he actually didn't want to sleep on the top bunk and then climbed down the ladder again.  Then he opened the remaining drawer that was not occupied by Kyo and then put his entire suitcase in the drawer.  Even though it didn't close, no one was going to tell Haru otherwise!!  HAW HAW HAW!!!

Yuki plunked his suitcase on the floor.  He was all done.

MEANWHILE!!!

"So tonight we're going to go to that mandatory dinner that the cruise people are holding and then to the Teen Welcome Dance!" said Kagura excitedly as she read of a schedule that she had picked up somewhere.

"Ages fourteen and up!" said Tohru.  "Oh…sorry Kisa!  You can't come I guess…"

"That's okay!" said Kisa.  "I don't mind."

"There's a pre-teen social though." Tohru added.  "You can go to that!"

"All right!" said Kisa with a weak smile.  "I'll ask Hiro if he wants to go with me too."

"I'm sure he'd love to!" said Tohru.

"This is going to be so much fun!" said Kagura.  "Us girls all together in one room with no guys to bother us!  We can stay up all night gossiping and talking about the Kyo and the other guys too!"

"I'm taking the top bunk." Said Rin as she got up on the top bunk and sat there as if she wasn't going to move forever.

"Are you going to come to the Teen Welcome Dance?" asked Tohru.

"No." said Rin.

"I bet Haru'll be there!" said Kagura.  "You can dance with him!"

"Why would I want to?" Rin asked.

"I don't know!" said Kagura.  "Because I'll be dancing with Kyo and Tohru will probably be dancing with Yuki or…maybe, no…that would be bad.  Just no SLOW dances, okay, Tohru?"

"I'd like to dance with EVERYONE!" said Tohru.

"Not Kyo." Said Kagura immediately.

"Maybe we can all dance together!" Tohru suggested.

"But I'll dance with Kyo the most." Kagura said.

"You're so amazing!" said Tohru.  "The way you're so faithful to Kyo!"

"Okay." Said Kagura.

MEANWHILE!!!

"I wonder how Akito is doing." Said Kureno as he looked out the window that was REAL.  It was kind of like Haru's false window except it was actually there.

"This is going to be so fun!" said Shigure as he ran around the room excitedly, touching EVERYTHING.  "And best of all, my editor doesn't even know that I'm here!"

"You should call her." Said Hatori.

"That would ruin all the fun!" whined Shigure just as the door burst open and Ayame came in wheeling a huge cart with a bunch of outfits on coat hangers with plastic around them on it.

"What should I wear tonight at the semi-formal mandatory cruise dinner?" Ayame wondered with a sigh as he shifted through the colorful outfits he had.

"Just as long as you're wearing SOMETHING, I don't mind." Said Hatori.

"I'm just going to wear this SUIT, I guess." Said Shigure as he pulled a wrinkly unfolded suit out of his suitcase.

Ayame and Hatori both stared at the horribly wrinkly suit.  It was as if they were both in shock.

"Your poor suit!" exclaimed Ayame.  "How could you have possibly let it go that far?!"

"Huh?" asked Shigure, confused.

"Ayame, let him borrow your iron." Said Hatori.

"Whose to say I have an iron?" Ayame said as if he were offended.

"What, you don't?" Hatori said.

"Yes, I do but still…" said Ayame, whipping an iron out from behind his back.

MEANWHILE!!!

"I'm ready to go to the dinner…" said Ritsu as he came out of the bathroom in his really girly clothing with a big bow on it and flowery and pink.  "I hope I look tolerable."

"Have you already forgotten which gender you are?" Hiro said smugly as if he were saying that JUST to get a rise out of Ritsu which he KNEW he would.

"I'M SORRY!!!" screamed Ritsu as he ran around the room and continued yelling and screaming stuff that would be pointless to write down.

"Be silent my children." Said Akito from the shadows in the corner.  "The hour of the mandatory dinner approaches.  Get yourselves ready to go."

"We already are ready." Said Hiro.

"Then let's go." Said Akito.  "Don't make me wait any longer."

"Why am I in a room with Ritsu and Akito?" Hiro said suddenly.

"Do you not like sharing a room with me, my little sheep?" asked Akito in an EXTREMELY creepy voice.

"Um…no, I was just wondering…" stuttered Hiro.  "Out loud…because…I uh…please don't hurt Kisa!"

"Do not fear me." Said Akito, walking over to Hiro and stroking him on the head as Hiro tried very hard not to cringe and run away screaming.  "Now go and fix your hair because I fear I have stroked it too hard and now it is out of place."

You didn't have to tell Hiro twice and he was up in a flash.

As soon as Hiro finished fixing his hair, the three of them walked out of the room to discover that the other three groups had left their room at the exact same time that they did!

They were all dressed up all pretty like.  After all, it's semi-formal.

So they all made their way down to the dining room where they were greeted by an extremely friendly Greek man named Zeus who said that he would be their host.  The dining room was quite large and fit about five hundred people in it and all the main characters were seated together at a large table.  And, since we do this every time, we're going to write down where they're sitting.  Be prepared for an extremely redundant and repetitive paragraph.

Hiro was sitting next to Kisa who was sitting next to Tohru who was sitting next to Momiji who was sitting next to Haru who was sitting next to Rin who was sitting next to Kagura who was sitting next to Kyo who was sitting next to Ritsu who was sitting next to Shigure who was sitting next to Hatori who was sitting next to Ayame who was sitting next to Yuki who was sitting next to Akito who was sitting next to the chicken who was sitting next to Hiro.

SO mainly, it was like this: Hiro, Kisa, Tohru, Momiji, Haru, Rin, Kagura, Kyo, Ritsu, Shigure, Hatori, Ayame, Yuki, Akito, The Chicken, Hiro.  (it's a circular table)

Just as everyone got settled, their waiter came up to take their orders.

"My name is Kruno." Said the waiter.  "I'll be your waiter for the duration of this cruise for whenever you come to eat here.  Now, I will take your first order.  The choices for tonight are chicken or fish."

"HEY!!" yelled Kureno.  "I'M THE CHICKEN!!!"

"Be silent my little fowl!" said Akito, smacking the chicken's hand.

"Oh!" said the chicken, winking.  "I don't know what came over me!  That was such an absurd statement.  I'll take the fish."

"The boat hasn't even left yet." Hatori said, shaking his head.

"Um…right." Said Kruno.  Then he went around the table one by one and everyone ordered chicken because fish is gross.  Except Kyo…he ordered fish because he likes it since he's a cat and all.  Then Kruno left.

"Hiro, are you going to the pre-teen social tonight?" asked Kisa.  "It's after dinner."

"Pre-teen social?" said Hiro.  "I wouldn't be caught dead at that thing!"

"That's too bad." Said Kisa as she looked down and appeared as though she would break down into tears any minute.  "Now I won't have anyone to go with."

"What?!" Hiro demanded.  "You're going?!  I wouldn't miss it for the world!"

"Really?" Kisa said, getting excited.  "I'm so happy!  You see, Tohru told me about the social and I thought right away that it would be a good idea."

"Wait…that GIRL told you about it?" Hiro said.  "Then maybe we should go and do something else…"

"But I wanted to go to the social." Kisa said. 

"And I REALLY want to go to the social." Hiro assured her.

"Great!" said Kisa, getting horseshoe eyes.  "We could meet all the other pre-teens that are on this cruise and make lots of new friends!"

"Or maybe it could just be you and me the whole time?" suggested Hiro.

"But it's always good to meet new people." Kisa said.

"Sounds good to me!" Hiro said, giving her the thumbs up.

"I just wish that you could come too, Tohru." Said Kisa, turning around and facing Tohru who was just sitting there looking far too content.  "But you'll be at the teen dance, right?"

"That's right!" said Tohru.  "I'm sure you'll have fun without me, though."

"Yes but…" Kisa started before trailing off.  "I still wish you could come."

"Hm, yes, it would be fun but I think you should spend your time with the other pre-teens!" said Tohru.  "And Hiro!"

Kisa turned around to see Hiro just as he put a fork behind his back that he was clearly planning to assault Tohru with.  He smiled at Kisa.  She turned back to Tohru.  "Yes, you're right!" she agreed.  "Hiro is a very nice and kind person.  He's all around delightful!"

"Yes…" said Tohru as she watched the murderous rage in Hiro's eyes.

"Tohru!" said Momiji suddenly.  Tohru turned around.

"Yes, Momiji?" she asked.

"Are you going to dance with me at the Teen Dance?" he asked.

"Of course I am!" said Tohru and then she started having inner monologue; "Wow!  Momiji is so small and young looking that I sometimes forget that he's only a year younger than I am!"

"It'll be so much fun!" Momiji declared.  "Won't it Haru?"

"Yes." Said Haru who was sitting on the other side of Momiji.

"Who are you gonna dance with?" Momiji asked.

"Oh I don't know." Said Haru.  "Myself I suppose."

"What?!" yelled Momiji.  "Aren't you going to dance with Tohru at all?!"

"Probably." Said Haru.  "Probably not.  I was kind of hoping that I might get a chance to dance with Rin though…"

"That's all it will ever be; hope." Said Rin knavishly.  "Just forget it.  I told you already, it's over."

"But I can't dance with anyone else." Said Haru.

"Yes you can." Said Rin.  "You can dance with anyone else in the entire room."

"No, I can't physically dance with anyone." Haru replied.

"You can dance with Kisa or Kagura." Rin answered.  "Or you could dance with Yuki."

"Oh…Yuki…" said Haru as he looked across the table to see Yuki who was just sitting there because the conversation had not yet reached him.

"I'm not even going to talk to you anymore." Sighed Rin, turning away from Haru but it just so happened that she turned right to Kagura who was itching for a conversation.

"Out of all the guys at this table, who do you like the most but don't you DARE say Kyo!!" said Kagura.

"Definitely Kyo." Said Rin.

Kagura's mouth dropped open and she looked as though she was just about to turn into Black Kagura when Rin assured her that she was merely kidding.

"But seriously." Insisted Kagura.

"Well…" said Rin.  "Yuki, Ritsu and Momiji are too feminine for me.  Hatori, Shigure, Kureno and Ayame are too old for me.  Akito…no.  Hiro's too young and he'd probably kill himself if anyone besides Kisa showed interest in him.  So that leaves Kyo and Haru and you know?  Haru's just way too boring and I'm done with him so I guess I will say Kyo."

"But Kyo is unavailable." Said Kagura as she squeezed her glass so hard that it exploded.

"Whatever." Said Rin since she's was actually only trying to get a rise out of Kagura just like everyone else was doing to everyone else.

"Kyo, you're mine, right?!" Kagura said, turning around and lunging on Kyo who had just begun to wonder why he had allowed her to sit next to him.  "Never date Rin, NEVER!!!  Never date anyone besides ME!!"

"We don't date!" yelled Kyo, trying to push her away.

"But we will!" said Kagura as her eyes started watering.  "And someday we'll be married and we'll have children!"

"Yeah and then you'll wake up!" said Kyo.

"YOU'RE SO MEAN!!!" screamed Kagura as she ran out of the dining room crying.

The entire table was silent for a moment.  "So Ritsu…" said Kyo, turning to Ritsu who was sitting on the other side of him.

"Yes?" said Ritsu.  "You're actually voluntarily speaking to me?"

"No…" said Kyo.  "I don't even know why you're sitting next to me.  You suck.  I hate you."

"That's understandable…" said Ritsu sadly with a sniffle.  "Everybody hates me.  With good reason too.  I'M SORRY FOR BEING SO HATED!!!  I APOLOGIZE!!!  I'M SORRY!!!"

"Stop talking to me!" commanded Kyo.  "I don't want everyone to think that we're friends or something!"

"I'M SORRY!!!" screamed Ritsu, turning around to Shigure.  "Shigure, I…"

"So anyway, Hatori." Shigure said, turning his back to Ritsu.  "The youngest kids are going to go to the pre-teen social, the teenagers are going to the Teen Welcome Dance…so where should us older folk go?"

Hatori raised an eyebrow.  "Do we HAVE to go somewhere?" he asked.

"Yeah!" said Shigure.  "What are we supposed to do?  Hang around in the room?  There's got to be something that we can do."  With that, he pulled out a little schedule that was in his pocket.  "Well…there's no dance or social for people our age so we can go to the bar I guess."

"I don't drink enough to go to a bar." Said Hatori.

"Forget for one night that you're not a stiff and we can all go to the bar together just to hang out!" Shigure said excitedly.

"What do you say, Ayame?" Hatori asked, looking at Ayame.  "I know you don't drink at all.  You interested in going to a bar and watching Shigure drink?"

"Okay!" said Ayame.  "I suppose I could get something non-alcoholic."

"Oh well…" said Hatori.  "I guess it's better than just sitting in the room."

"I hope you weren't PLANNING on doing that!" gasped Ayame as if he were offended.  "Can you believe him, Yuki?  He's such a crazy fellow!"

"Don't talk to me." Said Yuki.

"Come now, Yuki, if you allowed me to sit down next to you then clearly the bond between us is growing!" Ayame declared.

"You're hallucinating." Yuki assured him.

"No, Yuki, I truly don't believe I am." Ayame said seriously.

"Well what would you know?" Yuki said, sounding annoyed.

"Please don't bother Yuki anymore." Said Akito suddenly as he leaned his head on Yuki's shoulder and started stroking him.  Ayame turned his head away as if he didn't want to be associated with Akito, and Yuki froze and started to wonder how he had possibly ended up in between Ayame and Akito.

"Akito…" Yuki started, trying to be rebellious and take a stand against Akito.

"Yes Yuki?" said Akito.  "You are so special to me, Yuki."

Yuki looked as though he was about to say something but then decided against it because he was too frozen with fear.

"Yuki my dear…" Akito said in the creepiest voice EVER.

"Akito, look, the food is here." Said the chicken.  Akito sat up straight and looked at the plate of chicken in front of him.

"Ah, so it is." Akito said.  "Help me with my napkin, Kureno."

"Of course." Said the chicken as he picked Akito's napkin up off the table and put it on his lap.

"No…I want Yuki's napkin." Akito insisted.

"Of course." Kureno repeated as he leaned over Akito and snatched Yuki's napkin and quickly replaced Akito's napkin with Yuki's.  "Is that better Akito?"

"Yes it is." Akito answered.

There was silence for a minute until the chicken suddenly turned to Hiro.

"I don't know how I'm going to possibly engage myself in a conversation with you." He admitted.

"Same here." Hiro answered.

There was more silence.

"Then let's forget about conversation and just eat!" said no one in particular and everyone agreed so they all dug in!  Just as a reminder, everyone had chicken except for Kyo and THE chicken!  HAW HAW HAW!!!

After everyone had eaten their full, they all left to go to their various social events that were planned.

So Tohru, Kagura, Rin, Yuki, Kyo, Haru and Momiji all frolicked off to their Teen Welcome Dance.  Hiro and Kisa went to their Pre-Teen Social.  Ayame, Hatori and Shigure went to the bar.  Ritsu insisted on not ruining their time and it's not like they were going to argue or anything and the Chicken was going to drop Akito off at the Teen Dance and then wait outside the room for him just in case he wasn't having any fun.  The Mabudachi Trio briefly tried to talk him out of it but decided that it was okay if Kureno just wanted to stand there since Akito probably wouldn't have fun at a dance anyway.
